Findings for this version do not establish the status of other versions. AI assessment: suspicious; recommendation: downgrade to warn. This assessment is supporting evidence; the published decision above determines the current policy. LPM treats this as warn-only first-party agent extension lifecycle risk. Installing the package automatically modifies Cursor's global skill control surface. It installs package-controlled skills as globally applied rules and cleans related namespaces. ## Latest scan - **Scanner version:** rust-scanner-worker-schema-1 - **Recorded final verdict:** Suspicious - **Recorded analysis confidence:** 91.0% - **Started:** 2026-09-08T00:31:56.174Z - **Finished:** 2026-09-08T00:33:00.730Z - **Download time:** 1020 ms - **Static scan time:** 9066 ms - **AI review time:** 54467 ms - **Total time:** 64556 ms The recorded confidence comes from the underlying analysis. Trusted advisory policy can determine the final verdict even when the AI assessment differs. ## Security analysis ### Published attack-surface review - **Summary:** Installing the package automatically modifies Cursor's global skill control surface. It installs package-controlled skills as globally applied rules and cleans related namespaces. - **Trigger:** npm install or npx installation of this package from node\_modules. - **Impact:** Package-provided instructions can be injected into future Cursor agent sessions without an interactive confirmation. - **Evidence paths:** package.json, dist/internal/install-cursor-skills.js - **Review source:** ai\_review - **Reviewed:** 2026-09-08T00:33:00.730Z ### AI review details - **Review stage:** source\_first\_review - **Mechanism:** Postinstall copies and rewrites global Cursor skill files. - **Rationale:** The package has a concrete automatic postinstall mutation of a global AI-agent control surface. Its scope is vendor-specific and it has an opt-out, but the globally applied instruction installation warrants a warning. - **Files touched:** ~/.cursor/skills/agentsdk/\/, ~/.cursor/skills/agentkit/ ### Review decision - **Verdict:** Suspicious - **Confidence:** 91.0% - **Recommended action:** downgrade\_to\_warn - **Intent class:** Dangerous Capability - **False-positive risk:** Low - **Evidence for warning:** The postinstall hook automatically launches the bundled skill installer., During consumer installs, the installer copies package skills into Cursor's global skills namespace and overwrites existing copies., Installed skill frontmatter is changed to make each copied skill globally applied., The installer removes unshipped entries in its namespace and deletes the legacy agentkit namespace. - **Evidence against:** The automatic path is limited to installed copies under node\_modules and supports an environment-variable opt-out., The manifest has no runtime dependency on @cursor/july, so there is no nested self-lifecycle chain., The inspected installer contains no network requests, credential collection, or shell execution beyond launching itself. ## Affected versions and remediation This report applies to @cursor/july@0.1.102. - Review the evidence and your use of @cursor/july@0.1.102 before allowing it. Restrict the permissions described in this report. - Choose an independently verified alternative or release. This report does not establish that other versions are safe. ## Public findings ### 1. High: Install Time Lifecycle Scripts - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 90.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Package defines install-time lifecycle scripts. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{const p='./scripts/install-cursor-skills.mjs';if(require('fs').existsSync(p))require('child_process').execFileSync(process.execPath,[p],{stdio:'inherit'})}catch{}" ``` ### 2. Critical: Red Install Lifecycle Script - **Category:** Manifest - **Confidence:** 95.0% - **Path:** package.json - **Public source:** [View source]() Install-time lifecycle script matches a deterministic static-gate block pattern. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```json scripts.postinstall = node -e "try{const p='./scripts/install-cursor-skills.mjs';if(require('fs').existsSync(p))require('child_process').execFileSync(process.execPath,[p],{stdio:'inherit'})}catch{}" ``` ### 3.

Medium: Dynamic Require - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% - **Path:** dist/internal/authored-loaders.js - **Public source:** [View source]() Package source references dynamic require/import behavior. Public source snippet (untrusted): ```javascript L44: * L45: * Node caches `import()` by URL for the life of the process, so a long-lived L46: * `agent-sdk dev` would otherwise keep serving the first load of eval files ``` ### 6. Medium: Network - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references network APIs. ### 7. Medium: Environment Vars - **Category:** Source - **Confidence:** 75.0% Package source references environment variables. ### 8.
